but thats not what Is was saying, nor Jesus. You implied some will go to hell: ..."tells people in Matthew 25 that some will go to heaven and some not simply based on what they did in situations." So who will go to hell? Those who prolong poverty to keep in business, or those working to end the temporary fixes and find solutions? "The Poor you will have with you always..."For all I know they may be on the planet just to test faith. Or maybe test how well we use the brains given us. I don't think the creator appreciates mamalukes exploiting people. I asked what Stand Up Asbury spent in litigating against Market Street Mission. I guess you will not answer that question? I am not an apologist for SUFA. Money "spent" or put to use is a different issue. I'm not in position to know how much? How much have you spent and cost the City of Long Branch. Let's just say we agree that MSM is inefficient. OK you agree it's inefficient. and you said, "OK: You are quoting one official you has testified "his opinion" not substaniated facts. [> Morristown Police Chief Pete Demnitz ...said sometimes police feel the mission is not being truthful ] So it's inefficient AND at least you acknowledge the police chief. But unsubstantiated? Check his police blotters. Tell me who would you select to take over the shelter in Asbury Park, at that location and why? A totally different question. City planners, council, chamber of commerce, residents, the courst et al. can evaluate what will most benefit our city and our own indigent. Your issues are with Long Branch. Why keep inviting Asbury residents to join your causes? Can't you get enough takers in your own domain? My heart goes out to you and your concerns. I am a missioner, I don't prefer to work with folks with these types of troubles. I am called vocationally to do it. And I often with disaffected teenagers from dysfunctional families. But no one "called" me; I chose it. ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com
